Guerra de razas (Negros contra Blancos en Cuba) by Rafael Conte and José M. Capmany

Description

Guerra de razas (Negros contra Blancos en Cuba) by Rafael Conte and José M. Capmany is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book examines the racial tensions in Cuba, particularly focusing on the conflict between the black and white populations during a violent uprising. It likely delves into historical events surrounding the racial struggles in Cuban society, using firsthand accounts and testimonies from the period. The opening of the work sets the stage for a historical examination of the racial conflict, beginning with the authors’ intent to portray events as they unfolded during the 1912 uprising. They introduce the fundamental issue of race relations in Cuba by noting the deep-seated animosity between black and white Cubans, framing the conflict as an inevitable outcome of historical oppression. The authors argue that previous efforts of coexistence have failed, and suggest that the upheaval is simply a continuation of a long-standing battle between the two races in Cuba. The narrative promises to explore the truth behind this conflict, presenting facts and observations rather than embellishing them into a literary commentary.
